INVESTIGATION

Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations. Students will:

Observe common objects by using the five senses

Describe the properties of common objects

Describe the relative position of objects by using one reference (e.g., above or below)

Record observations and data with pictures, numbers, or written statements

Record observations on a bar graph

Describe the relative position of objects by using two references (e.g., above and next to, below and left of)

Make new observations when discrepancies exist between two descriptions of the same object or phenomenon

INVESTIGATION

Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations. Students will:

Make predictions based on observed patterns and not random guessing.

Measure length, weight, temperature, and liquid volume with appropriate tools and express those measurements in standard metric system units

Compare and sort common objects according to two or more physical attributes (e.g., color, shape, texture, size, weight)

Write or draw descriptions of a sequence of steps, events, and observations

Construct bar graphs to record data, using appropriately labeled axes

Use magnifiers or microscopes to observe and draw descriptions of small objects or small features of objects

Follow oral instructions for a scientific investigation

Repeat observations to improve accuracy and know that the results of similar scientific investigations seldom turn out exactly the same because of differences in the things being investigated, methods being used, or uncertainty in the observation

Differentiate evidence from opinion and know that scientists do not rely on claims or conclusions unless they are backed by observations that can be confirmed

Use numerical data in describing and comparing objects, events, and measurements

Predict the outcome of a simple investigation and compare the result with the prediction

Collect data in an investigation and analyze that data to develop a logical conclusion

INVESTIGATION

Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations. Students will:

Differentiate observation from inference (interpretation) and know scientists’ explanations come partly from what they observe and partly from how they interpret their observations

Measure and estimate the weight, length, or volume of objects

Formulate and justify predictions based on cause-and-effect relationships

Conduct multiple trials to test a prediction and draw conclusions about the relationships between predictions and results

Record data by using appropriate graphic representations (including charts, graphs, and labeled diagrams) and make inferences based on those data

Draw conclusions from scientific evidence and indicate whether further information is needed to support a specific conclusion

Write a report of an investigation that includes conducting tests, collecting data or examining evidence, and drawing conclusions

Recognize the usefulness and limitations of models and theories as scientific representations of reality

Read and interpret topographic and geologic maps

Analyze the locations, sequences, or time intervals that are characteristic of natural phenomena (e.g., relative ages of rocks, locations of planets over time, and succession of species in an ecosystem)

Recognize the issues of statistical variability and the need for controlled tests

Recognize the cumulative nature of scientific evidence

Analyze situations and solve problems that require combining and applying concepts from more than one area of science

Investigate a science-based societal issue by researching the literature, analyzing data, and communicating the findings. Examples of issues include irradiation of food, cloning of animals by somatic cell nuclear transfer, choice of energy sources, and land and water use decisions in California

Know that when an observation does not agree with an accepted scientific theory, the observation is sometimes mistaken or fraudulent (e.g., the Piltdown Man fossil or unidentified flying objects) and that the theory is sometimes wrong (e.g., the Ptolemaic model of the movement of the Sun, Moon, and planets)

Here is a list of the most comprehensive, helpful, and interesting chemistry lecture series this researcher could find. Nearly all of them are recorded in a real college class and are taught by professors. They are organized by sub-branches and the titles of each series should make it pretty obvious as to what type of material the course covers. Note, these are FULL COURSES and that every one of these links is to the first lecture of an entire trimester/semesters worth of courses, so there are generally about 30-40 videos that come after the one that is linked.
